Kris, the UPS guy gave me that "I've got better things to do with my day" kinda look! Image

Howard, the above photo is a real, unedited, non-airbrushed shot of the bottom of a fried tomato I cooked a couple of months ago. I flipped it over and the bloody thing was smiling at me! I probably should have listed it on eBay and made a fortune. I thought of it as a good luck omen anyway! Image

Enjoy it Darren.

I am glad to see that it arrived o.k.

Thanks for posting a picture of that creepy tomato face. It was disturbing enough seeing it in person...I thought that you were going to Ebay thatImage

My 660 is indeed a great guitar.

My guitarists are anxious to put their hands on it too !!!! I play Bass 99% of the time and would not render justice musically to this instrument by playing it more often !

Got any Blessed Virgin fried tomatos, Darren?

Are the UPS drivers as crazy as the rest of you guys? To let Darren take his mug says a lot. Now he can post it at the Post Office! Image

Darren's such a nice guy that he even makes vegetables smile! Image Did you eat the tomato, Darren? That's too strange!

Melibee, I'm glad someone else appreciates the weirdness of my smiling tomato!

You'll probably think I'm completely crazy now, 'cause I've also had a piece of sliced zucchini smile at me and a beer bottle watermark indicate a look of astonishment when Dave Pascoe was here!

The "beer bottle watermark" was not strange within itself. However Darren talking to it (in a very loud falsetto voice) for a week was a bit odd. Image
